Suburb profile

Currimundi is a coastal town in Queensland, in Sunshine Coast Council.

Shops and everyday services are easier to access than in most comparable places. Park access is a strong feature of the suburb, with park access 40% above the peer median. Green cover is an exceptional strength, well above typical levels for coastal towns, and reported crime sits a little below the peer median. The clearer weaknesses are weaker population growth and lower socio-economic advantage, with population growth 85% below the peer median.

Currimundi is a better fit for people who value daily services and lower crime more than population growth.

ABS Estimated Resident Population allocated to this suburb from SA2-level data. Not an official ABS suburb count.

Methodology

Figures are allocated from ABS Estimated Resident Population at Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2), using 2021 Census share within overlapping SA2 regions. Where Census data is unavailable, area overlap is used instead.

The dashed chart line is a simple growth-trend estimate to June 2030 (~6,950), extrapolated at +0.3% average annual growth since 2011. It is illustrative only — not an official ABS forecast.

IRSD decile (2021)

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

What do IRSAD and IRSD measure?

IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.

IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.

A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
